How do I retrieve pictures from my iPod to my computer

So I've had my iPod (1gb) for years now and I just started using it again.  I noticed that I have pictures from my children when they were younger in it and I need to take them out.  How do I do this?

There's no way to do this using iTunes, unless you used a very specific setting to sync the pictures to the iPod.  To see this setting, select the iPod in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES.  Over to the right, on the Photos tab, there is a checkbox that says Include full resolution photos.  If that setting was previously checked when you synced those photos to the iPod, then you CAN retrieve them.  On the Summary tab, check the checkbox for Enable disk use (if it's not already checked).  Apply the change (if you changed that setting). 
Using Windows or Finder on a Mac, open the iPod as a "disk."  There is a folder named Photos, and inside that folder should be the full resolution image files of those photos.
If that Include full resolution photos checkbox was NOT checked, there will be nothing there you can use directly.  There is only an image database with low-res images ("thumbnails") that fit the iPod's very small screen (and save iPod storage space).  There may be third-party utilities that can extract the low resolution images from the iPod, but they would look very bad blown up to computer screen size.

    how can i transfer picture from old iPod to my computer

    Are these pictures on your iPod no longer stored on your PC or in a backup somewhere?  If so, you'll need the help of third party software to assist you with the task of extracting the photos from your iPod to your PC.  Keep in mind that these synced photos are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnails of the original.
    If you stored these photos in full resolution, see this article for instructions on copying them from your iPod back to your PC.

    Once the photos are on your PC again, you can configure them to sync to your iPhone.

    Then you can't transfer them to your computer. Use disk mode and use your IPOD as a portable hard drive if you want to do this in the future. Here's how:

    If the pictures were synced from a computer to the iOS device then they are removed the same way.  Connect the device to the computer.  Tell iTunes what to sync and sync.

    Then there is absolutely no way to get the pictures from the iPod to the iPad unless you import them to your computer and then import them inor iTunes and sync them to the iPad.
    Where did the pictures come from? Which iPod version do you have?

    How do I transfer music from my ipod to my computer without replacing the music on my ipod with the music on my computer?

    You can't do that with iTunes (except for songs you purchased from the iTunes Store).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer songs files from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the songs files are on your computer, add them to your iTunes library.  Then, you can sync your iPod to that iTunes library, as desired.

    How do I get pictures from my GSIII to my computer?

    if you have a Windows computer you need to have Windows Media Player 11 installed to "see" your S3's directories/folders when you attach it via USB .. this drove me crazy for a week trying to figure out as NO WHERE in the tutorials does it mention you need, at least for Windows XP, to install the latest WindowsMediaPlayer for Windows to recognize an Android phone and see it's files and folders
    You'll find your pictures in the Gallery folder as I recall .. you can simply copy or cut them into your computer as if the S3 were another connected computer (which it is )

        diehlin1,
    That definitely should show up! Let's get that working. Has anything changed with the computer? What type of phone do you have? Can we try a different USB port on the computer or if possible a different cable?

    Photos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. If you use iPhoto for importing photos from any other digital camera and for photo storage and management on your Mac, you can use iPhoto for this.
